A Los Angeles-based UK artist Sophie is one of the most sought-after electronic dance music producers and we have a first-hand experience. It was a few years back when maestro Žltý introduced us to her interesting videos with even more interesting music. And since then we have been waiting – until this year. Sophie, previously playing her sets as a mysterious artist – now comes secret-free to Pohoda 2018. She has produced for stars such as Madonna, Vincent Staples, MØ, Nicki Minaj or Charli XCX. Her hit “Lemonade” was named one of the best singles of 2014 by The Washington Post, Resident Advisor, Complex and Pitchfork.

Shortly after the March European premiere of her new show in London, also thanks to the collaboration with DIY magazine, you will get a chance to see her at Pohoda, where she will make the SLSP Space Arena dance during her Live Set. → read more
